Well everyone, I finished a new poem today. Did I tell you all that our church is having a creative expo??? Well, in case I didn't... we are! LOL It's the 30th. We have different areas we can sign up for.... I signed up for arts/crafts, Stories, and Poetry. I knew I could do the art/craft, and was pretty sure about the story, but was REALLY worried about the poem. Cause, she wanted us to READ them. Like, out LOUD. *eyes still wide with a bit of fear*
So today I went to pray... and wound up composing the poem! Here it is:
Testimony
Shattered
Broken
Wounded by sins
Others had committed
Wandering
Searching
Looking for a God
Who was real
Traditions
Hypocracy
Those were the "Christianity"
I'd known
Desperatlely
Searching
For a God that was real
In someones life
Empty
Hungry for love
I slid deeper and deeper
Into sins that I couldn't control
A merciful God
Saw more
Than the anger I felt
Looking into the broken heart
People
Entered my life
Telling me this God was real
And their lives showed it.
Living
The faith they taught
I listened to their words
Wondered, could he be real to me too?
Sitting here
With you now
I'm amazed yet again
That he was, and still is
Healing
Comforting
He's been real in my life
In ways I could never have expected.
Loving
Caring
He longs to be that real
In your life too
